Chapter 145 - 142: The Cave
Roar!
After taking such a heavy blow, the Abyssal Dragon Ape also grew angry, with a rapid increase of ferocity in its eyes. It no longer paid any heed to the slight fear it held for the Flood Dragon as a frigid energy ripple condensed on the surface of its body, even freezing the air around it. Its huge fanged mouth opened wide, and a cold air abruptly converged, instantly forming a massive cyan whirlpool ball of about fifteen feet.
As the Abyssal Dragon Ape struck its chest with its claw, the terrifyingly cold whirlpool ball shot out, aiming directly for the Flood Dragon in the sky. Along its path, a faint cyan trace lingered in a straight line through the air.
In the sky, the Flood Dragon’s indifferent eyes watched the spiraling whirlpool ball speeding toward it. Moments later, it too opened its dragon mouth, where a brilliant cyan light gathered, resembling the sun in the night sky. It finally collided heavily with the icy whirlpool ball, instantly creating a thunderous explosion of energy that echoed through the mountains like startling thunder.
Hiss, hiss, hiss...
Astonishing beams of light refracted from the point of collision, striking the area around the stream. Wherever they landed, rocks shattered, streams were severed, and large trees were uprooted, leaving complete devastation.
In the wake of this fierce battle, the surroundings around Ye Xuan rapidly collapsed, forcing him to dodge repeatedly while his gaze swiftly moved around, eventually settling on the side of the stream where the Abyssal Dragon Ape had originally been. There was an inconspicuous cave entrance.
"Hmm?"
Initially, Ye Xuan hadn’t noticed the existence of this cave. Only upon a closer look did he realize it could be a good spot to hide from the battle. His eyes flashed, and he promptly leaped down from the rocks and slid into the cave.
The cave was just large enough for one person to pass through and seemed unremarkable at first glance. However, after entering, Ye Xuan slid for quite a long distance before finally coming to a stop.
